The last ever flyer
given out in phase one at this gig advising that Friars was no
longer welcome at the new Friarage Hall
odds and trivia
This was
the last Friars Aylesbury gig at the Friarage Hall. The hall itself was
knocked down in October 2007.
Whatever
you hear to the contrary, God Gave Rock and Roll To You is an Argent song.
It is NOT a Kiss song.
This original line up came
back to Aylesbury in 2014 to play a charity gig at the Waterside.
what
happened?
Argent: Henrit
(from 1984) and Rodford went on
eventually to join the Kinks. Argent has continued a successful career
often touring with Colin Blunstone at The Zombies. In 2008 a full Zombies
band and The Yardbirds toured together (including Rodford who whilst
involved in getting The Zombies going never played with them in their
heyday). Ballard went on to be a successful songwriter (Hot Chocolate and
Roger Daltrey amongst others)
